509 Civil Engineering& Architecture (STEM) 10-12 5

Prerequisite: Successful completion of IED 508 or AM Engineering 1, teacher recommendation, concurrent
enrollment in Academic/Honors Algebra II, and departmental approval.
This course is a specialized course in the Project Lead the Way Engineering Program. In this course students
are introduced to important aspects of building and site design and development. They apply math, science, and
standard engineering practices to design both residential and commercial projects and document their work
using 3D architectural design software. Students will progress from completing structured activities to solving
open-ended projects and problems that require them to develop planning, documentation, communication, and
other professional skills. Students will develop skill in engineering calculations, technical representation and
documentation of design solutions according to accepted technical standards, and use of current 3D architectural
design and modeling software to represent and communicate solutions.
